Pork Chops and Applesauce, that’s swell! I love the Brady Bunch so much! I always wanted an Alice Nelson of my own! You guys are the best! Great video!
We’ve eaten at Calhoun’s many times over the years in Gatlinburg but never been to the pigeon forge location. Always been a good experience, never had a bad meal. I’ve been going there something like 25 years now. Almost all bbq is good and different restaurants have different flavors.
We ate at the Calhouns in Gatlinburg and we were disappointed. We did not know the history of them winning a championship rib cook off so we did not understand why they claimed to have the best ribs in America. In our experience they are no where near close to having the best ribs in America today. Back to your review it was spot on. No one wants to give a review that sounds negative but it is a real thing. Thank you for your honesty.
Absolutely! I depend on reviews for their truthfulness. I've went some places where there have been awesome reviews and not liked the food at all! That's always truly disappointing!
My banana pudding has a shortbread crust. It's flour, butter and coconut, crumbled that goes on the bottom, a little in the middle and sprinkled on top. Now I have the idea of adding some macadamia nuts to it. The one you two are eating looks amazing and very similar to mine.😊
I absolutely love a sweet potato, they are so delicious. Everyone in my family loves them too, with the exception of my brother. Brooks he hates them I believe as much as you do. Most of us have at least a couple of things we really don't care for, my main ones are water chestnuts, and parsnips. 😊
We looked so forward to eating at Calhouns and couldn't have been more disappointed. The best ribs ? Not even close. We enjoyed Bennets leaps and bounds more.
We have eaten at Calhouns the one in Pigeon forge and have never been disappointed but we will need to go back and try all the food you guys had, looked absolutely amazing delicious... the dessert will definitely try, thanks for your review and taking us along with you...
We've tried the Calhoun's in Gatlinburg and found the same thing. Not bad, not great, but there are some great restaurants in the area and it's just tough to justify going to Calhoun's when there are better options. Just our opinion.
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun You guys did an Azul review & had the Tomahawk Pork Chop, I believe. How did that compare to the other pork chops you've had in your area?
Lol...when Christy is trying the ribs and has to let it "marinate" I just looked at Kimberly and said "SEE"! When I'm trying something that Kimberly has cooked, she's asking me "How is it" as soon as it hits my lips...lol. I got to savor it for a moment 😊 Anyhow, Great video and Review, Ya'll! All of it looks amazing!
Oh my goodness you have to go back and get their Ale Steak…it’s the best steak we have ever eaten. Also their Ale pork chops are amazing. We always tell them we want all garlic rolls and no cornbread or biscuits. Oh and of course we have to get extra butter. ❤ please go back and try the Ale steak!
Well, it all should have lived up to the best. So, don't know if we will try. With today's prices, it just has to be delish! Pudding, yum and that biscuit 😋 I would never eat medium rare pork. 😮
It seems to happen to every restaurant that branches out, it loses it's special attention that made it so good. I have found to that every dish on the menu starts to taste alike.
I've had Calhounds years ago and wasn't impressed then. Benetts Pit BBQ wasn't good either. The best ribs in Gatlinburg used to be a whole in the wall place down by Partons Deli but they have been gone for many years now.
It seemed from watching you guys try the food and the comments you made while trying that you liked your food? You raved about the pork chops but then the review sounded as if you were not happy with your meal? I am a bit confused with this one ..
The ribs were ok flavor wise just dry. My pork chop was good. It’s my fave thing on the menu. It just was cooked weird all the way through. Still good food just not the best 😊
I'll go ahead and say right now that Slows in Detroit are better. Pappys in St. Louis would top Calhouns. TBH I don't know that Calhoun would beat Bustin Butts, Delauders, Preachers, or even Bennetts in that area. I'm curious to see what y'all say, though. I'll be tuning in when this vlog goes live. 🙏🏽😎
I hate Nilla wafers in Banana Pudding! It should always, always be Chessman Cookies. Period, full stop. Nilla Waffers are for when your sick and need a boost. Otherwise leave them at the store and NEVER in Banana Pudding! ❤❤❤
That’s not worth airtime. We feel it would be disrespectful to talk about something like that. I’m not even sure I have heard that. Will have to look into it
Brookes, I love your clever and funny openings!
Steve thank you so so much 😊
Haahaa! You showed the iconic Brady Bunch episode!!! Didn’t miss an episode growing up! Love you guys! Love that you love the Lord!! ✝️✝️✝️💜💜💜
Carlee thank you so much! We love you too ❤️
I love how her shirt says KING,LORD,SAVIOR!!!!
Thank you 😊. Christy loves her faith shirts
I love her shirt too!! God bless you both!! ✝️✝️✝️
Pork Chops and Applesauce, that’s swell! I love the Brady Bunch so much! I always wanted an Alice Nelson of my own! You guys are the best! Great video!
Aw thank you guys! You guys rock too! We appreciate you watching!
I thought you both were really impressed with Bennett. Keep up the great job. You both are real.
We do our best. 😊

Brooks loves Calhouns. The bbq for us that day was just a little dry. Other than that we will go back
You two are the best, love you guys
Patricia thank you! We love you too

Thank you both so much. We don’t enjoy the negatives but it’s important to point them out.
Absolutely! I depend on reviews for their truthfulness. I've went some places where there have been awesome reviews and not liked the food at all! That's always truly disappointing!
@@jillgross6232 Unfortunately that is what happens a lot these days with restaurants.
I absolutely love Calhouns, I always leave full and anxious to return. The food is awesome, and the sweet potatoes are the bomb.
Bobby Christy sure does love the sweet taters 😊
I also might order the T-shirt that Chrissy is Westin’.
Wearing I mean. My fingers are so clumsy. Not gonna lie.
Donald thank you. Christy designs our shirts herself. 😊
My banana pudding has a shortbread crust. It's flour, butter and coconut, crumbled that goes on the bottom, a little in the middle and sprinkled on top. Now I have the idea of adding some macadamia nuts to it.

Rudy that sounds absolutely delicious!

Brooks loves water chestnuts but don’t do well with parsnips. 😊
Thanks for the review. I would definitely try that dessert. Hope everyone has a blessed and safe Fourth of July!
Thank you for watching! Have a blessed and safe 4th!
The pudding is so good with windmill cookies
Windmill cookies! That’s it! Thank you Dana!
Oh boy! Windmill cookies! That takes me back to a kid! I loved them.
New subscriber and your videos are awesome!
Marie thank you! We are so happy you are here!
We've eaten at Calhoun's several times and it's good food and very clean but I was super disappointed in the ribs!
The restaurant is very clean and we didn’t have much to complain about except the ribs and pork mainly were dry. We will still go back
We looked so forward to eating at Calhouns and couldn't have been more disappointed. The best ribs ? Not even close. We enjoyed Bennets leaps and bounds more.
Dallas sorry to hear it wasn’t great for you. We would go back but it wasn’t knock your socks off
I never get pork chops when i go out but would definitely try this one! Great video.
Brooks loves to get pork chops when he goes out. Lol. The ale pork chop is well worth the try 😊. Thank you so much
We have eaten at Calhouns the one in Pigeon forge and have never been disappointed but we will need to go back and try all the food you guys had, looked absolutely amazing delicious... the dessert will definitely try, thanks for your review and taking us along with you...
Could have been a little off that day. Dessert was oh so good! Thanks for watching 😊
Hello my favorite youtubers
Aww Sandi! Thank you so much! We love you
I like her shirt😊😊😊😊😊
Timothy thank you so much 😊

Ed that is exactly where we are with Calhouns.
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun You guys did an Azul review & had the Tomahawk Pork Chop, I believe. How did that compare to the other pork chops you've had in your area?
Them burnt ends looks absolutely delicious. Can you pass some thru the screen, please.
Wish we had taste o vision. Lol
I feel you Brooks! I hate sweet potatoes as well. I can do small amounts of the casserole type, but not a big fan.
Brooks won’t even do that. Lol. Thanksgiving is a time he says go away sweet taters. Lol
Happy July 4th 🎉🎉
Happy July 4th!
Nice restaurant, delicious looking food. Nice review
Thank you Tara 😊
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun you are welcome 💖
I luv places like that so good 👍
What’s your fave bbq?
I love burnt ends but who else in pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg in the area that has burnt ends
Trotters whole Hog in Sevierville has wonderful burnt ends as well as Delauders in Gatlinburg.
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun thank you we coming up that way in September and God Bless y’all ❤️🙏❤️
God Bless you Both and your family and have a Blessed Fourth of July
God bless you all too! Have a great 4th!
Me and the family are down till the 4th would love to run into you guys love watching your videos
Jerry be safe and have a good time! If you see us, yell at us and say hey!
Where are all the customers? Yall must have picked a less busy time.
We usually do that so we don’t film as many people just trying to enjoy dinner. 😊
I like sticky fingers, dry rub ribs.
Dry rub is good. Problem here was that these were overall just a little dry
Rich’s ribs are the best ribs in America!!😂😂
Nice review guys!
Yes they are so good! Thank you guys!
'Merica! 🇺🇸
Merica indeed! 😊
I worked for this company for many years they make amazing food probably the best in the area.
It just seemed a little off that day. Could have been just an off day. Dessert was great!
Lol...when Christy is trying the ribs and has to let it "marinate" I just looked at Kimberly and said "SEE"!
When I'm trying something that Kimberly has cooked, she's asking me "How is it" as soon as it hits my lips...lol. I got to savor it for a moment 😊 Anyhow, Great video and Review, Ya'll! All of it looks amazing!
Yes! Gotta take it in slowly. We appreciate you guys! Have a great 4th!
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun Happy Fourth of July 🇺🇸
Where can I het her shirt
Love in Faith is where most of my t shirts come from. Here is my affiliate link:

Brooks does like the ale steak. The marinade is very good he says! Their bread was excellent! And they do have good butter.
Well, it all should have lived up to the best. So, don't know if we will try. With today's prices, it just has to be delish! Pudding, yum and that biscuit 😋 I would never eat medium rare pork. 😮
Calhouns may be one of those places we go back to just for dessert.
The food looked good, but the vibe was a formula restaurant, with formula food. Good just not great. Thanks folks.
George that is a good way to sum it up.
It seems to happen to every restaurant that branches out, it loses it's special attention that made it so good. I have found to that every dish on the menu starts to taste alike.
@@Rudymk-ph2xb I agree Rudy. They get bigger than they streamline everything. Great take on this
You need a silver and bronze fork!😂
Heath she does 🤣
can anyone please tell me this song in this review at the end i like this song
It's called Tennessee on my Mind by Will Harrison
@@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun thank you my friend ,beautiful song
Brooks sweet potatoes? 😂 as we get older our taste in foods change, have you noticed that yet?
Lori I have tried since but just can’t do it. Lol. However we both do notice getting older our tastes change for sure
I agree with Brooks on sweet potatoes. I don’t get it and don’t care for them. 🤷♂️
John he just don’t like em since he was forced to eat so many when he was young
We had the same experience. Not a favourite. God bless.
We would go back but no golden fork here
I've had Calhounds years ago and wasn't impressed then. Benetts Pit BBQ wasn't good either. The best ribs in Gatlinburg used to be a whole in the wall place down by Partons Deli but they have been gone for many years now.
We do enjoy Corkys and Tony Gore for ribs. Good stuff there!
How about giving a fork rating on each review. Gold excellent, silver above average, white plastic average and black plastic for below average.
Steve that is a thought right there! That’s awesome!
😅 Food didn't look too appetizing
Marie it was only fair. 😆

G5 you are right about other places you listed. The ale pork chop is the best thing on calhouns menu. I’m holding to that
@SmokyMtFaithFoodFun It was a great vlog, and it was nice chatting with y'all. Have a blessed day.
order the sides and call it a day...
The Mac and cheese was excellent
I hate Nilla wafers in Banana Pudding! It should always, always be Chessman Cookies. Period, full stop. Nilla Waffers are for when your sick and need a boost. Otherwise leave them at the store and NEVER in Banana Pudding! ❤❤❤
This was good. It had pistachios in it. Very good 😊
U should have done a history lesson on the Calhouns owner and how he murdered his son years ago
What???
That’s not worth airtime. We feel it would be disrespectful to talk about something like that. I’m not even sure I have heard that. Will have to look into it
Wow. What a statement.
